Long overdue for an update as we have been buried at the shop here, but Ill post some photos of the great weekend we had at Conclave. All I can say is that this D2 Ive built is a beast so far. Thanks to Cooper Tires, I swapped out my Nitto Mud Grapplers with a brand new set of 305-70-16 Cooper STT's and they were nothing short of spectacular. I aired down to 20 and walked through some of the hardest trails at the Cove with stock gearing and axles!

 

Thanks Dave!

Whats new with the truck, lemme think............

A lot more scratches and trail bruises, that's for sure!

I am putting some TF sliders on before Rovers on the Rocks in November. I've come close a few times on the sills, so it is time to upgrade!

 

What would you like pics of?

 

And almost the only option.... the TF arms are not that bad.

Also, poly bushings suck.

 

I have had very good luck with the Pollybush brand.


What don't you like about them?

 

I don't like any poly bushings, never seen one last as long as a factory bushing, and when they fail, they fail pretty hard. The only think I like about them is they're cheaper and easier to install/remove.




awful powder coating, hit the radius arm mount under almost full compression

 

I respectfully disagree, Eriks LR3 has Pollybushing with "33"tires on it for years / 50k or miles. Still holding strong. Better then stock bushings for sure.

 

I agree with you on powder coating but don't just paint TF with that statement. All of the UK has this issue. They have different regulations when it comes to powder coating.

I don't know that you are saying about the arm / mount interference? The bucket on the frame?

 

Ok some of you will notice the thread has been cleaned up, the mods discussed it and made the decision as a team. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Hard to say, his originals obviously lasted longer than 3 years!

True, it's all terrible and I wasn't referring to only the TF arms.

You don't remember my "dunnunununununun*southern music" moment at 7m 8seconds in this video?

Due to the size and shape of the radius arm, it cut my air line to the front locker in half and bent the radius arm mount.
